There's blood dripping down from their teeth.
This is an inconvenience at worst, nothing important at best. They liked being on their own, without any other clanmates. They(venom, he reminds himself. Just venom.) like eating their food whole, still living. They had no interest in being judged for their habits, the somewhat inhumane treatment. Eddie, for all that it matters, is just glad so many animals are feral. It means they don't go hungry long, and considering that his other nearly ate his damn organs the first day, this would be .. not so great. He revisited this fact enough that Venom was, quite frankly, starting to get sick of it.
It's the scent and sound of the capybara screaming that alerts him to Sephiroth's presence. In another moment, it's just Eddie. The raccoon's ears twitch as he realizes that one of his clanmates were out hunting, too. He can pick out the exact moment the Capybara dies and, in the resulting silence, just stands there. There's no real need to approach Sephiroth, and while Venom had perked up at the screaming Capybara, they had no real interest in the lion himself. But Eddie, as it happens, is a nosy little fucker with no real inclination to stalk away, and simply stands there, ears pricked from where he hovers, watching, in the undergrowth.
.. Sephiroth speaking up is somewhat of a shock. Eddie is certain the other is alone, but his gaze slides around the clearing nonetheless. Nobody. No scent, just Sephiroth talking to himself. Eddie could relate, but still, what the fuck. He thinks the most interesting thing, though, is Sephiroth declaring himself a god. Eddie's brow would quirk up if he had one. So. Their leader has a god complex and talks to himself, huh. Okay, then. Eddie is in no place to be judging the lion, but he's still a little confused. Venom is particularly annoyed that the lion thinks so highly of himself, but Eddie likes to tell himself that he doesn't care about his other's opinion.
"Not to be a hypocrite," Eddie starts rather obviously, stepping out from his clever little hiding place in the bush, "But who are you talking to?" Confronting people on things that come off as symptoms of mental illnesses doesn't usually end well. Eddie knows this very, very well. But he's very good at antagonizing answers out of people. Oftentimes very physical answers. Sephiroth seems level-headed enough that he'd either deny it or answer straight-up. Eddie is honestly more concerned about a straight-up answer. Worst case scenario, though, Eddie antagonizes the lion to the point of getting kicked out of the Rosebloods. He's done stuff like that before. Eddie is rather apathetic towards this distant option, though. Maybe more than he should be. (his apathy isn't helped by how much he trusts Venom with his health. This kind of sucks, because Eddie doesn't want to trust Venom at all. It makes them smug.)
